I ordered a dishwasher soap dispenser "lid assembly". When it arrived, it was not an assembly at all but only a lid. I had to reorder a pin and spring, When i finally had every thing, it was an easy repair.
Was a simple task to perform, a child could have done it. The technical skills diagnosing it was a bit hard though. The skills finding the culprit was indeed simple. Rubber was torn. Dishes would not come clean especially on the top & would not dry properly. The rubber piece being torn in half made it hard for the water & soap to despense to the top through thh center plastic tube, but now it cleans great. Thank's Now to find out why it won't dry properly at the heating element is another task. It leaves water droplets on the dishes. Once I got the rubber screw on attachment installed the dishes are clean & dry now & no water dropplets on the dishes. The water dispenses up to the top like it suppost to throught the small tube to wash the upper rack dishes. The wife is happy now she doesn't have to clean & dry them by hand. Thank's so very much!! Now on to the next project in hand to submit later on.
The old gasket around the door pulled out easily but was pretty nasty. While cleaning the channel out, kept finding more gunk that had built up. I decided to go ahead and take off the Inner Door. Used Torx driver to take off the screws. Found a tremendous amount of gunk built up. Was well worth taking the extra time to clean it all out. Replaced the Inner Door and put new gasket in channel. No more leaking!
